OCR/caption below. It’s a post from a sopuli.xyz user saying that Lemmygrad is the worst Lemmy instance of them all, even ones carrying far-right terrorism, NSFL gore, and CSAM.
same, I’m on Sopuli and their Blocklist is pretty short but has the worst ones.
they are really, really bad and some are straight up illegal in some countries.
Mostly far-right ones, straight up terrorism (seriously there are people with RAF and other terrorist organization’s logos on their profile pics there), nsfl gore videos (like people dying and being tortured type of stuff), and nsfw ones full of underage anime girls in suggestive poses…
lemmygrad is probably the worst one out of all of them, just because of it’s [sic] size (tankie terrorist group)

Ah yes. There’s far-right terrorism, NSFL gore, CSAM, but it’s the commies that are “the worst one out of all of them.”

so true. it was actually me who killed Pat Robertson
Thank you for your service.
Imagine unironically fixing your face to say communism is worse than literal CSAM.
Buh b but muh hundred gorillion.
They are right. We eat babies and kick the elderly, don’t we?
I just finished a shift at the baby-kicking factory!
Vile videos just make them feel bad. Communists, however, want to free the imperialist’s slaves, therefore reducing the amount of treats they get.
This unnecessary drama between the instances is really turning me away from this platform tbh
I mean that’s the internet at large tbh. the only way to avoid it is by finding a siloed community but then you limit access to other people, which you can see as a pro or as a con. at least here, if you want to avoid communities/instances/people, its your choice to block them rather than let the platform decide that for you, unless like in the OP the instance makes the choice of blocking on behalf of the community.
I think that’s something that’s always going to be an issue, it’s just up to the community and moderation to limit it. It happens with subreddits, it happens on Mastodon, it happens here. Especially when one of the largest instances is explicitly communist
I’d argue the drama is inherent. ActivityPub – and federalization/decentralization more generally – just surfaces it, and provides different groups of people with appropriate tools – muting, blocking, defederating – to curate their social graphs as they see fit, rather than ceding that control to a single centralized provider.
This is a good point. This shit happens on Reddit and Twitter too, but when it happens there it’s a brief meeting at corporate HQ followed by a swift ban wave. The extended drama is a consequence of the fact that no individual holds that power.
What’s CSAM? Edit: nvm I googled it.
Unrelated: Nice to see a fellow Transformers fan! Arcee is my favorite and my psuedo-girlfriend’s favorite as well.
What is CSAM, so that I don’t have to?
